STUART PIGOTT - 99 POINTS (8% ABV) Usually acornucopia is of fruits, and this has an extrarodinarily wide range of fruit aromas (think apple to mango via pink grapefruit), but it’s also a cornucopia of herbs (wild, garden and tropical). Overwhelming harmony of ripeness, minerality and delicacy at the seemingly endless finish. The number 5 is printed bold on the back label.
JAMES SUCKLING - 97 POINTS Delicate, with a high level of finesse and detail. Flint, wet slate, stones and plenty of compact citrus and yellow fruit on the nose. The palate is shy and understated, with salty citrus, tension, purity and mouthwatering minerality drying out the sugar and bringing a tense, minerally finish. A wonderful Spatlese that's all about stones and minerals. Drink or hold. Ryan Montgomery Staff Writer & Critic
